Powerless most certainly, I was powerless over alcohol and for me my life had become unmanageable.
Ever wondered how acknowledging your powerlessness can actually make you stronger? Craig M. from Denny, Scotland, brings this paradox to life in this episode of the 'Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast'. Drawing from a variety of AA resources like 'Twenty-Four Hours A Day', 'Daily Reflections', and 'As Bill Sees It', Craig explores the idea that admitting powerlessness over alcohol is a crucial step towards reclaiming control over your life. He reads a poignant quote from 'A.A.
Thoughts for the Day': 'Powerless most certainly, I was powerless over alcohol and for me my life had become unmanageable.' This resonates deeply with many who have felt overwhelmed by addiction, but Craig’s readings offer a beacon of hope. He emphasizes that surrendering to this reality doesn't mean giving up; instead, it opens the door to faith and personal agency.
'Just because I'm powerless it doesn't mean that I'm helpless', he reads, highlighting that recovery is about finding strength through acceptance and community support. Craig also touches on the importance of living in reality and embracing the AA way of life. 'We obey AA's steps and traditions because we really want them for ourselves,' he shares from 'Daily Reflections'. This underscores that recovery is not just about following rules but about genuinely wanting a better life.
Lastly, Craig reminds listeners to share their blessings, quoting from 'Meditation for The Day': 'Blessings can and do go around the world. Passed on from one person to another.' This episode is a heartfelt reminder that even in our weakest moments, there is strength to be found and shared. For those looking to deepen their understanding of recovery, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of community.
